A Grove of trees in the Scottish HighlandsThe Honey Tree GroveCelebrating the birth of Honey Iona McKinnon Tainsh31st of August 2009

To our precious Honey, It is our prayer that you will grow strong and healthy surrounded by the love and protection of family, friends and God. Just like you, this grove of trees, each one named after your family, will grow strong providing habitat for flora and fauna and giving us the air that we breathe, and in time bear fruit to produce and nurture new life. Honey, your happy nature is already a rich blessing to us all, may you tread softly on our fragile planet and give more to this world than you take away.
